Letters Patent'No. 60,240, dated December- 4, 1866.

SPECIFICATION- TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: 4

Be it known that I, A. J. POPE, of Strongsville, in the county of Cuyahoga,.and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Churns; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and com-` 1 plete description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification,

in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view.

Figure 2 is a vertical section.

Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the different views presented.

In the drawings, A represents the case, which is in form an oblong square. This ease is supported on the legs, B, which extend to the top of the case as shown, the sides of which are connected and held rmly together by means of the rods, a, extending from the side, being secured by means of nuts, a', theunder side or bottom i, l

of the churn being curved, as shown in tig. 2, to coincide. with the sweep of the dashers. C C are standards connected one to each side of the case. These extend up, as shown, being bent nntilthey meet above the churn, 1, and the ends are connected by means of the link c. rlhese standards are for the purpose of attaching thej pendulum, to which the handle is secured. I) is the pendulum, the endet' which is held between the ends ofthe' `l l standards, C, a pin, b, passing through them and holding them in place. To the lower end of the pendulumis p l l secured the handle E, which extends from one end ofthe churn to the other, and is provided with a gib and key at d, for the purpose of disjointing it at each end, se that it will require less room. F F are arms, `which are attached to and extend down from the handle E, through the cover,.intothe case of the-churn.` The cover or lid, A,is in two parts or sections, which is removed, one section at each end. Through the centre of the 4cover l is a slot through which the arms pass, a narrow strip, e, being placed over this slot to prevent the cream from being thrown out by the action of the dashers. B is a pieceor strip for the purpose of holding the standards C in place andpreventing them from being pulled or thrown down sideways. Under this piece` is placed the" beater, G, which is composed of several upright strips or bars, secured to the top piece, G'. This beater can be i easilyremoved from the churn when desired. r To the arms F, above referred to, are connected the dashers, H. l x

These consist of the pieces I, from which extend out the Vribs Il the piece I being perforated between said ribs, as indicated by-fig. 2.

When the churn is in operation the end of the handle is forced down, thus raising the other, which bringsl .p

the dashers in contact with the beater, asindicated by the dotted lines in fig. 2; and the handle being raised,

lowers the other end, each working and bringing each dasher alternately' ri contact with the beater G'. l 4In this way the cream is greatly agitated and the churn operated without trouble or much labor. Amachine constructed in this way on a large scale can be used for washing clothes, whileone constructed on the same principle, only y smaller, will be used for a churn.

What I. claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is` The standard C, pendulum D, and handle E, in combination with the arms F, dasherH, and beaterG, con-` :structed and operated as and for the purpose set forth.
